The Ferrari

Excuse me if you’ve heard this one before but I laughed like a loon over this story.

A young man goes to buy the best car on the market, a brand new Ferrari
GT. It is also the most expensive car in the world, and it costs him
$500,000. He takes it out for a spin and stops at a red light.

An old man on a Moped, looking about 100 years old, pulls up next to
him. The old man looks over at the sleek, shiny car and asks, “What kind
of car ya’ got there sonny?”

The young man replies, “A Ferrari GT. It cost half a million dollars!”
“That’s a lot of money,” says the old man. “Why does it cost so much?” “
Because this car can do up to 320 miles an hour!” he states proudly. The
old moped driver asks, “Mind if I take a look inside?” “No problem,”
replies the owner. So the old man pokes his head in the window and looks
around.

Then, sitting back on his Moped, the old man says, “That’s a pretty
nice car, all right...but I’ll stick with my Moped!” Just then the light
changes, so the young guy decides to show the old man what his car can
do. He floors it, and within 30 seconds, the speedometer reads 160 mph.

Suddenly, he notices a dot in his rear view mirror. It seems to be
getting closer! He slows down to see what it could be and suddenly
Whoosh! something whips by him going much faster!

“What on earth could be going faster than my Ferrari?” the young man
asks himself. He floors the accelerator and takes the Ferrari up to 250
mph. Then, up ahead of him, he sees that it’s the old man on the Moped!

Amazed that the Moped could pass his Ferrari, he gives it more gas and
passes the moped at 275 mph. WHOOOOOOOSHHHHH! He’s feeling pretty good
until he looks in his mirror and sees the old man gaining on him AGAIN!

Astounded by the speed of this old guy, he floors the gas pedal and
takes the Ferrari all the way up to 320 mph. Not ten seconds later, he
sees the Moped bearing down on him again! The Ferrari is flat out, and
there’s nothing he can do! Suddenly, the Moped plows into the back of
his Ferrari, demolishing the rear end. The young man stops and jumps
out, unbelievably the old man is still alive! He runs up to the mangled
old man and says, “Oh My God! Is there anything I can do for you?”

The old man whispers… “UNHOOK...MY...SUSPENDERS...FROM...YOUR...SIDE
VIEW....MIRROR!”
